June 20, 20232023 OK 75

Summary

The Supreme Court of Oklahoma held that respondent Jackie Dale Elsey substantially complied with the terms of his two‑year deferred suspension and therefore dismissed the suspension. The Court declined to impose the additional six‑month probation recommended by the Professional Responsibility Tribunal and denied the Oklahoma Bar Association’s request for costs. The decision was based on a de novo review of the disciplinary record.
